Centre of Excellence for Trials Collaboration (CETC)
The vision of the Centre of Excellence for Trials Collaboration (CETC) is to position Glasgow as a world leading centre for pioneering trial methodology and design.
CETC acts as a nexus for specialist multidisciplinary regulatory and methodological expertise to address important population health questions. Working collaboratively with a range of internal and external partners, CETC endeavours to position Glasgow at the forefront of high impact, innovative and robustly designed academic research.
We are using the ‘trial’ to indicate all high-quality and efficient interventional trials and other well-designed studies, addressing important health questions to improve health and social care practice. This includes pilot/feasibility studies/simulation modelling with a trajectory leading to a full/definitive trial.
The strategic objectives of CETC are to grow local research infrastructure and capacity to ensure researchers, at all levels, are supported in every aspect of securing research funding and career development and to drive increased funding success of Glasgow-led trials.
